The title of this article seems like total click-bait.
Flatpak works great on an updated Fedora 28+. Flathub is great. Things definitely moved forward strongly during the year to the point that almost nobody knew what Flatpak was (as it wasn't very useful) at the beginning of the year, and by the time of Fedora 29's release, it was a full solution ready for prime time. By now it's clearly the way of the future, especially as we move to "atomic" root filesystems, like Android, but even without that, it's still adding nicely to overall user experience, making the better, safer-way easier to use than the older, less secure way. Win-win!
